Hà was diagnosed with a deviated septum causing chronic infections in July. The surgeon at Wollongong General Hospital recommended a craniotomy, and She is scheduled for September. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $7,500, and after what the public health scheme will pay we're still $5,600 short.
my daughter has been in and out of Wollongong General Hospital since July. The doctors say a deviated septum causing chronic infections will get worse without a craniotomy. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $7,500 is more than we can find.
While we wait, Hà struggles with daily life and can't climb stairs. Her family has taken turns caring for her, and I've cut my own work hours to be there.
The recovery period is expected to take about 8 weeks. During that time Hà won't be able to climb stairs, so the costs keep growing.
I'll pay the hospital and pharmacy directly and post every receipt in the updates section.
Where the $5,600 goes:
• Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $2,050
• Post-operative medication: $300
• Hospital stay (3 nights): $2,350
• Physiotherapy sessions: $350
• Pre-operative tests and imaging: $550
Thank you so much.
